Scoped. Mosin. Nagant.
-Being shot by a blind guy.
*applauds choice of uber-custom Remington 700*
-Before that, Marine-snipers used the Winchester Model 70, the rifle used by Carlos in his infamous "through the scope" headshot.
Also, I vote for Cleveland, Ohio.
Also, I'm probably going to hold-in what happened to my first cat and the story of how I learned headshots (and blunt-force) aren't nearly as instant as the movies sell it to be. (he nearly lived to be 21... was planning on sharing a beer with him)
-Yes, even if a chunk of brain gets ejected out the nose. Which kinda makes you wonder how if 90% of the time headshots kill from blood-loss, if it'll ever reliably work against zombies (especially in the case of pistol-rounds such as the .380 ACP).
^That lil tidbit makes zombies, IMO when coupled with the difficulty of making a headshot in the first place, a lot scarier.
Another story was of how a hunter dumped an entire shotgun-tube of 20-gauge 7/8 oz slugs into a deer's head at point blank... still wasn't quite dead enough for field-dressing. It also slid quite a distance down the cliff (the idea was to completely stop it from moving so it would not slide into the rivine).
And then there's the Thompson-LeGarde tests, which were pretty much best-case pistol-headshot scenarios... rather disappointing performance from the .500 Express.
